Hello to all. Its been years that I've revisited this thread.
My 2005 GLX is already 8 years old and 95000km on the odo, and just had its PMS. I wasn't expecting what the mechanic recommended that the front shocks,brake pads & brake shoe had to be replaced. At the same time I had its alloy mags restored at promaster.
How much it cost me....
front shock (OEM) - 16,0000
front brake pads (bendix) - 880
rear brake shoe (bendix) - 1,800
oil filter (OEM) - 385
spark plugs - 540
mag restoration - 4,800
wheel fitting & balancing - 800
oil change (semi-synthetic) - 2600
labor - 3000
My bill racked up over 25T, as the shocks took a big chunk of the bill. But I guess the shocks did serve me well. And perhaps my APV will stay with me for another 8 years.
For the first time I'll be using Bendix brake components, as the OEM would have cost me 4 or 6 times more. I tried searching the same for the shocks but in vain. I had no choice but to take the expensive OEM shocks. But when I've bought the shocks, it had the name KAYABA stamped on it.
